    Rule of 5...

    Does it apply to PVP ios cause if so then i have a set of Jav to sell.

    the bonuses for targeted aoe, melle, pbaoe, and ranged dmg are all so similar.

    Any combo of 5 of the listed sets seems to end the possibility of a 6th in any of these catagories.


    they all have the same-ish bonuses
  7. tried it and could not spawn him on 2 different servers.

  12. I just read that other mmos become free after a while when do you think this one will.

    The whole idea of being rewarded for NOT playing bugs the heck out of me. It gives the people that say "you just wanted to be handed badges" ammo.

    The fact remains that the ONLY thing you can do to speed up progression on the day job badges is by NOT PLAYING YOUR CHARACTER. It doesn't matter if you have to log off (and that actually works against some badges like healing/damage). A lot of players like their badge collecting characters, but the players are goal oriented. This means the goal conflicts with their desire to play a character they love. That is a bad idea.

    Recharge means your AoEs are up faster, and so are BU and Aim. But damage means you just plain do more damage. Which do you think would be better in the long run?

    No wrong answers.
    My main is a blaster. He is also my badger and my influ ****. So I am partial to the blaster.

    soin response to the op my answere is this.
    my main is nrg/nrg/ff

    It all depends on how much your gonna play it how you iod it how much influ you put into it.

    My recharge on my main is perma hasten and my dmg is sick. cause of BU-AIM almost every mob i have one avail.

    my acc is over 2.0 from bonuses and my end is sic since i have perf shifter, miracle, panacea, and numina built in.

    But you may not so it all depends on what you want out of your blaster.

    I am choosing to make every incarnate avail to my toon so depending on what i will face i have every option and i am sure that some options are not avail "YET".

    However on my scrppers and tanks i may have taken one or two depending on how i play them.

    So all i can say is that on my blaster im pimping it out even more than it is. Yet on others i could care less....

    On some i wont even open the arc as i have about 32 50s now on mulitople servers. In fact the server i play more on i incarnated more. And the server i play less i incarntaed some.

    This is one of those things that you will just have to decide foryourself but i do suggest that you do more than one cause some things are better than others depending on what you are facing.

    so have fun with it and try to do it all. Unless you dont want to then dont.

    p.s. i drank to much last night to for punctuation. figure it out. Pretned its in code.

    1) some of it is true
    2) some of it is funny cause i have 20 50s on tri and its really a joke that tri will understand.
    3) some of it is made up
    4) and i am still way too cool for pants
  17. 1) tankers need taunt
    2) the devs hate farming
    3) farming is wrong
    4) there is pvp
    5) the game is dying
    6) triumph is alive.
    7) you need to wear pants
    8) roleplay is fun
    9) insperations are cheating
    10) you dont need ios
  18. There are so many for sale. The whole market and inventions fourm is now taken over by the for sale threads.


    Wonder if this will continue or calm down. Maybe the devs can make a special for sale fourm section.

    wonder if the price will drop with all these for sale. I saw many sell on market recently

    I dont really like the day job badges. Bad idea to make badges for not playing your favorite characters however because of it i probably have 15 more 50s then i would have so i guess i see what they were doin.

    I wont miss "needing" to log out in a certain spot. And i wont be pissed when i log back in to realize i just was in the wrong spot and i missed 5 days. That was frustating.

    please NO MORE day jobs in future issues!!!!!

    The key word in the first paragraph is I can play my main "more" I played him when new stuff came out and i did a lot of tfs with him but i just didnt use him for any old itf or katie.

    in the second paragraph i said i dont like day jobs and i dont.

    and the 3rd paragraph i said i found it annoying to go to the day job and place yourself just so to get the right one cause some of them are overlapping slightly. It was aminor frustration when it was placed wrong.

    If you want AOE why would you want mace/war mace/or stone melle. Take aoe powers like fire or elec or ice.

    But anyways i like axe most i have all of the types to 50 and iod and i just like axe. I have it on a sheild tank. It really works well.

    Just beware that if you take anything like lazer eyes for a ranged attack in your epic your axe or mace will be put away. When you bring it out again on your next chain your animation is longer.

    I've been set up for 2 days now 24 hours straight, here is my findings:

    1 Killer / 3 Rezbots

    1440 defeats, gaining rep for each defeat.

    Shards gained: 8

    That works out to about 1 shard per 180 defeats.


    *Also*

    I will have to look over my logs, but I don't think you gain shards from a non reputation defeat, meaning you get 1 chance every 5 minutes for a shard, just like you do for a PvP recipe.


    Wow- all my kills are for rep

    11 shards so far and if got at 225. And had to stop for weekend cause wifes comp couldnt handle it.

    Its one rezzer and one kill.
    and just the one recipie.

    clearly my numbes are totally different form yours. But thats what i got. I have no power slotted in the alpha atm. and im on a dead server in a off place. I wonder why our numbers are so off almost by a factor of 10. Ill have my wife check for a horseshoe when she wakes up.
  23. 11 shards 225 kills


    almost one quarter of the way to 1000
